hes still a douchebag. dont be nice to him. Don't you think it's a little presumptuous to make statements like that? I mean, maybe you know Milkis incredibly well or something, but I'm going to take his apology at face value because I believe he deserves that. You sound like you know he doesn't mean it, and I'm curious as to how you could know that. Idra was an exploited low-tier progamer under Korean management for two years, I wouldn't particularly blame him if he was extremely cynical about the things people say and took nothing at face value. LOL
i don't know why waxangle feel the need to put it in there lol :D

I liked you when you posted the blog on reddit the one right after and this one make me dislike you.

My biggest problem is that you still think your opinion about Broodwar is valid. You're still an elitist douche about it, and being able to ADMIT to being elitist doesn't make it any better.
When you apologize only for your "choice of words" even though those words perfectly conveyed how you actually feel, you're just being patronizing.

This feels very much like "too little, too late" and presents itself as very insincere. :\ Not gonna flame, I just really feel like this was a sort of attempt to save face and gain pity from the community.

Although i was disappointed in your previous post, i'm glad it has lead to some positive growth, could be an important thing for you that stays for the rest of your life. Here's hoping that it will  . Good luck in your future, and your pursuit for happiness.

Your only post is hate directed towards someone who spent hours of his time doing free translations for you?
I don't care even if he wrote he approves of stealing candy from children, he contributed more to this scene than you or I ever will. Someone writes something, other people disagree, discussion ensues, afterwards just make up your own mind on where you stand.
I really don't know why people are so pissed about his opinion.

Everyone makes mistakes. We're humans, we're not perfect or robots. Our emotions sometimes takes the best out of us. We can be having the life of our time or feel like total shit, as if we were in an abyss of depression. The emotional rage can sometimes shallow us whole and take over us. We've all at one point been enraged, say or do something that hurts the ones we love or care for. I'm glad that you saw through the drama and came forth with a composed conclusion, despite how much it hurts to hear that you will have to leave. I'm also sorry that there are people who dislike/hate you... there will always be someone who wants to drag you down.
I would like to thank you for your contribution to the community. I always loved the insight you had at MLG and the many translations you've done for us. I normally don't write long posts on Team Liquid because I figure its pointless to post when there's so many more active posters and I can't keep track whether someone responded to me or not, but since you will be leaving and I admire your work I will make this post a little longer than I usually post (which honestly, its like less than a paragraph most of the time or one liners).
Whatever. My pointless rant is over. Now go chase the rabbit you wanted to chase.

I really hope you take a step back from all this overexposure you've gotten yourself into, and give yourself a chance to grow as a person.
|
Sorry.
I never thought your original statement required the shitstorm it got, and I don't think you should be redeemed such as is happening right now. It's blown waaay out of proportion, and frankly, apologizing like this is, in my eyes, only even more attention seeking.
If truly you cared, you'd have had the brains not to post the original "I'm leaving", and the fact that you post an "apology" after such a short time, well ... I'm sorry Milkis, but I don't feel like I can trust you anymore. Throughout the past days you have shown so many different sides of yourself, and YES, that does happen, but we're all human, and you're not a "special case" or anything. As such I'm gonna treat you like I would every other person.
Milkis, I'm sad you're gonna be gone. But given your recent behavior, I feel it's clearly for the best. Sadly I'm more happy with you not being a part of this community right now (sorry for sounding so douchy). Sure, MAYBE if you resolve your problems you'll come back, but I honestly don't hope so. You had a great chance, and you really managed to screw it up. I honestly don't think it'll go better "next time". So both for you and for "E-Sports", I hope you stay gone, and I wish you a happy life.
Sorry if I'm being too blunt.
Good luck have fun in life.
EDIT: spellings

for a guy that hardly posts, you actually go out of way to convince the community that Milkis is a douchebag. That's actually kind of sad.

Milkis, you're a fucking legend to us. Get your shit in order in your own life and come back to us when you feel right, and not a minute before. There'll always be haters, but for every one of them, there will be another who will appreciate your effort!
Take care of yourself!

Hey Bud,
We met in Columbus face to face and I was happy to see a guy making a name for himself as a first rate translator with some influence in the scene. Sorry to see you go. Hope that things work out.

someones contribution to the community shouldn't mean you have to blindly like his opinions though. People disagree'd with his opinions, he can argue back all he wants. I feel like his ego is just really big and he was absolutely shocked when a lot of people flamed him that he emo quit the community. Not trying to flame because i still really appreciate his translations, but quitting because of all this AND handling it like such an attention whore speaks much more to me about his character than all of his contributions.
